Plasma cytokines/chemokines are associated with reduced blood counts of lymphocytes, eosinophils, and basophils in untreated acutely HIV-infected patients. a Correlation between CXCL13 and total lymphocytes. b Correlation between CXCL13 and eosinophils. c Correlation between CXCL13 and basophils. d Correlation between MIG/CXCL9 and total lymphocytes. e Correlation between MIG/CXCL9 and eosinophils. f Correlation between MIG/CXCL9 and basophils. g Correlation between soluble IL-2 receptor and total lymphocytes. h Correlation between soluble IL-2 receptor and eosinophils. i Correlation between soluble IL-2 receptor and basophils. The measurements of cytokines and blood cell counts were in the hyperacute phase of HIV infection. Each symbol represents an individual participant (N = 12 except CXCL13 (a–c) with N = 10). Statistical test: Spearman’s rank-order correlation. P values < 0.05 were considered significant
